I always like to have a stash of birthday cards on hand. I love these little "mousies" peeking out from under the party hat. I made a background by sponging oxide inks on my card stock, then spritzing water on a number stencil and laying it over the sponged backgrouind. When I lifted off the stencil the water lifted off some of the ink and left a light image of the numbers. After it was dry I used a birthday embossing folder and ran it through my machine.


Stamp:  from the Spring Mini Stamp Set - Stampendous
Embossing Folder - Darice
Distress Oxide Inks:  Wild Honey, Broken China - Ranger
Die:  Labels 4 - Spellbinders
Alcohol Markers - Caliart
Green Glitter Pen  (on confetti) - Gelly Roll
Number Stencil - TWC
Flower Soft  (hat top) - Sunshine Yellow
Confetti  (stars):  Charleston - Catherine Pooler

Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope to see you over at the challenge. Have a great day!
